There's too much attitude, and disrespect for those who disagree on this forum. That applies to both sides.
BTW- for the record, I don't know if this makes me a member of your so-called "bare headed brigade" or not, but I don't usually wear a helmet when riding on the road.
The Pro-Helmeteers are a bit different. They tend to overstate protective capacities of helmets based on personal experience and use questionable research for source material. Bare-Head Brigade does a lot of mis-inferring and very often misrepresents and overstates data from legitimate studies.
Different tactics and faults, same end. Fanatic adherence to one end of a very polarized subject.
I wear a helmet most of the time I'm on a bike, but infrequently go without.
